I walk into walls and I say what I think ~ Both can be dangerous

A friend once told me she didn't care for the title of my blog. She meant it as a compliment; explaining that, in her opinion, I was very intelligent and far from oblivious. She thought I was demeaning myself with that title. But I disagreed. I explained to her that one of the things that has gotten me through life thus far is the gift of being able to laugh at myself.

I trip a lot. I bump into things and walk into walls. I'm a disgrace to my gender because I truly do not multi-task well. I can barely chew gum and walk at the same time. It's partly because I'm a bit clumsy, but also because I'm unobservant of the physical world around me.

As far as the thinking out loud ... well, that probably explains itself.

Shari:

I read this post and laughed. After knowing you my whole life I totally get this post. You are so perceptive and quick in just about anything but there is a side to you that is so innocent and gullible that I find an endearing quality. I just want you to know I really miss you and thank you for praying for me. As you know, I have been going through some tough things but can honestly say that God has given me such a peace that I never knew existed. It feels so good to know how much my family loves me and to know who my true friends are. I just miss the fun times we had in CA. I hear Nordstrom is coiming or here and after my surgery I want to do a Nordstrom run with you. Just wanted to share with you that I smiled and laughed inside reading this entry, cause I know you and love you!

Love Kelly

Thanks, Kelly! You know I love you too and always have! I'm so glad you are doing well. I would love for my first trip to our new Nordstrom to be with you! : )
Love it, Shari! I thought I was the only one who walked into walls...or in my case most of my co-workers...bless their hearts!
